i was changing my angel eyes to 8500k and kept hearing this odd "BEEE BOOO" noise coming from the right side (driver's side) of the engine. any ideas what it could be? car was off. car had not been driven for about an hour.

About every 15 or 20 seconds "BEE BOO" ... not very loud but definitely there.

Not sure .. did you have your key in your pocket and have compfort access? Could it have been picking up something from that?

ideas please! thanks in advance.

i have active steering ... may or may not be relevant.

I noticed that too and posted about it. I think we agreed it was the electric water pump or other cooling device working after the car was off.

You guys have nav? The dvd drive also makes noise when you unlock the car.

When you open the trunk, the car reads the DVD and sends your location to the Police department... so they can more easily find the body you are removing from the trunk. At least in Chicago that's how it works.
